The San Diego Padres selected Cleveland Browns quarterback and former Texas A&M star Johnny Manziel with the 837th pick in the 2014 MLB Draft.

The Heisman Trophy winning quarterback didn't play college baseball but flirted with the idea in the college football offseason but told the Associated Press "Football became center stage" in his life.

Manziel, who was taken in the first round of the NFL Draft this season by the Browns, was selected in the 28th round of the MLB Draft.

The MLB draft site lists Manziel as a shortstop. The Padres also selected Texas A&M pitcher Jason Jester in this year's draft.
